    • Oversee facility maintenance which includes creating a clean and organized shop environment, curb appeal, buildings and grounds, equipment, vehicles, and maintenance.

    Safety & Compliance

    • Establish and maintain a strong safety culture throughout the manufacturing facility.
    • Develop and enforce safety protocols, procedures, and training programs in compliance with OSHA and other applicable regulations.
    • Serve as the primary point of contact for workplace safety initiatives, employee trainings and compliance efforts.

    Strategic Planning & Process Improvement

    • Develop and execute short- and long-term manufacturing strategies aligned with company growth objectives. Provide a clear sense of direction and focus.
    • Assess equipment and workforce needs to support future growth, including capacity planning and capital investments.
    • Identify opportunities to introduce lean manufacturing practices, automation, or new technologies.

    Leadership & Team Development

    • Manage and mentor a team of skilled builders, technicians, machinists, and shop personnel.
    • Support employee development through training, performance feedback, and goal-setting.
    • Foster a culture of accountability, collaboration, and continuous improvement that is built on the foundation of the Core Values of BWC.

    Benefits

    • Competitive pay
    • Healthcare (BCBS), dental, vision, and short-term disability
    • Life Insurance of $100,000 (because we care about your family too)
    • Bonus eligibility
    • Paid time off – because we believe a balanced life is an abundant life
    • Great environment where employees are valued
